Someday this may form part of a 'strategic cycleway' on the west side of Hobson's brook.
This might be a semi-decent stab at filtered permeability / cycle street network. The bollards are OK. Maybe a little close, and of the unforgiving ... [more]

Ridiculous 'Cyclists dismount and use footway' sign.
Meanwhile, the works are preparing to narrow the shared-use path in order to create yet another traffic lane! It's like I stepped into a time machine and ended up back in the 20th cent ... [more]

New busway junction that prioritises a tiny amount of motor traffic over walking, cycling and public transport.
Note that the car has just blown past a sign reading 'No motorised vehicles except buses'

Route sign appears to show cycle route going straight ahead at a T junction with Mersey Street (Dual Carriageway A49). The intention presumably is for cyclists to dismount, walk along the footway, cross at the staggered pedestrian only cros ... [more]

96162 Woodhouse Lane Sale Trafford
Description:
The path through the woods is technically part of Woodhouse Lane and it returns to a metalled surface at the west end of Cherry Lane (at its junction with Firsway) through to the closure of the roadway at its west extremity.
To allow unencumbered access to any path through the 'woods', there should be a dropped kerb opposite Firsway to make it cycling permissive. See also https://www.plotaroute.com/route/559784 a potential minor scheme to Sale Firsway to Woodhouse improve surface

96161 Ashfield Road Altrincham Trafford contraflow for cyclists. Warning signs required and road layout change signs required on the traffic flow side.
Description:
Ashfield Road, off Hale Road/Stamford Park Road, Hale: This is in many ways similar to Harley Road #96157. Ashfield Road is bi-flow from its north end (junction with SPR) to the junction with Elm Road, about 40 metres from it south end junction with Hale Road. That 40 metres is single flow south bound for motor vehicles but northbound cyclists are permitted since there is a dedicated 8m cycling lane from Hale Road. Southbound motorists over that 40m length have no warning to expect oncoming cyclists. There needs to be a sign at the junction with Elm Road to warn motorists of this potential hazard. Ashfield Road is invariably heavy with parked cars and moving vehicles/those waiting to turn onto Hale Road generally occupy the centre of the available road leaving little space for cyclists to pass safely.

96157 Hartley Road Sale Trafford contraflow for cyclists. Warning signs required and road layout change signs required on the traffic flow side.
Description:
Harley Road, Sale: this road is one way for motor vehicles south bound from Waverley Road to Bridgewater Street.
Cyclists travelling north are permitted since there is a dedicated cycling lane for the first 12m from the junction with Bridgewater Street; having cleared that lane southbound vehicles for the next 200 metres have no warning to expect oncoming northbound cyclists. There needs to be a sign at the north end of Harley Road to warn motorists of this potential hazard.

96156 Tatton Place contraflow opportunity for cyclists. "Except Cyclists" sign required underneath. Warning signs required and road layout change signs required on the traffic flow side. This may require a TRO (ideally on an area wide basis) which is a lot easier than you may think: www.cycling-embassy.org.uk/blog/2013/01/08/view-drawing-board-exempting-cyclists-traffic-regulation-orders
